Other confusion is, it is working fine with ruby 1.8.7, not with ruby 1.9.3, here is the code

I've no idea what you're trying to do here, but the underlying cause is that on ruby 1.8.7:

'123'[0] #=> 49, the byte value of the first character

but on ruby 1.9.3

'123'[0] #=> '1', a string of length 1 beginning at the specified offset
